Zatman Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 Was interested to see his general play today, he looks a real handful. His hold up play seems excellent and he has an eye for a pass as well. passing really surprised me, played a wonderful ball to Gabby when he came on that sent Gabby away and was so good he couldnt get into the box to get on the end of it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bunnski Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 Beast, won everything that came near him and was intelligent with the ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supernova26 Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 (edited) Gestede I see as a poor man's Fellaini, which is ok if that's your thing. Please don't mention him in the same vein as Benteke, it's just delusional hyperbole. This guy has is 27 and has been around the block a few times.

rodders0223 Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 Gestede I see as a poor man's Fellaini, which is ok if that's your thing. Please don't mention him in the same vein as Benteke. Apart from the fact they play different positions, have two totally different styles and attributes you are spot on. Also, a poor man's Fellaini I would take any **** day...or do you not remember Weimann or Bowery? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dont_do_it_doug. Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 So how many headed goals are we predicting this season? I say 7. 7 more with his feet. All comps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrentVilla Posted August 8, 2015 Moderator Share Posted August 8, 2015 I think he will get 16. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrinityRoadSteps Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 I think 10-15. But I really want to see a powerful header from a corner that smacks the underside of the bar then bounces in. I love headers like that 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dont_do_it_doug. Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 Or a diving header. Thank you please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 Gestede I see as a poor man's Fellaini, which is ok if that's your thing. Please don't mention him in the same vein as Benteke, it's just delusional hyperbole. This guy has is 27 and has been around the block a few times. Call him what you want. He scored the winner today and we got 3 points. So yeah, poor man's Fellaini, Huddlestone, David Luiz, Coloccini, Carlos Valderrama, afro or not, call him what you want, but if he keeps scoring that will do for me.

tomsky_11 Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 Gestede I see as a poor man's Fellaini, which is ok if that's your thing. Please don't mention him in the same vein as Benteke, it's just delusional hyperbole. This guy has is 27 and has been around the block a few times. Whether he's 27 or not, whenever he has been played he has scored at a good rate. 4 of last 5 seasons have been around 180 mins a goal or better. Last two seasons have been more like 135 mins per goal. Really don't care if he's the same type of player as Benteke or not, so long as he's scoring.

omariqy Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 Wish he had the number 9. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mantis Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 Wish he had the number 9. I like 39. That's the number Bent had in the second half of 10/11 when he came in and was scoring for fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrinityRoadSteps Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 The sooner we get Benteke out of our systems the better. And today is a good start in doing that. He's gone. Get over it. Move on. Support the players that are here now 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arj Guy Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 Reminds me of John Carew 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weedman Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 Gestede = Carew with cooler hair. Not the best player ever, but with the ability to turn beast mode on and the fact he acknowledges the fans, he is going to become a crowd favourite IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Villarocker Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 My online stalker back to ruin the thread. Do you beat your kids up? Asking a guy if he beats his kids up because of things he says that bugs you is well out of order. I don't know if you've apologised for that comment yet but, if you haven't, I think you should. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dudevillaisnice Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 I like him. Can't see too many getting the best of him in the air. He might actually get some joy against United too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
